"Life... is like a grapefruit. It's orange and squishy, and has a few pips in it, and some folks have half a one for breakfast." - Douglas Adams

 

If you think you understand the meaning of this quote, please please let me know, as I am racking my brains ;D

(Douglas Adams was a genius!)

Every morning you have the chance to be aware, that you are part of a solar system. And you never will forget the moment when the first sunbeam touches you.

Backlit Silver Spotted Skipper getting its energy level up by spreading its wings towards the afternoon sun.

 

Common throughout the summer and into the fall season.

Today (25Oct22) we could see a partial solar eclipse from The Netherlands.

I used a 10 + 6 stops filter to create this capture.

Have a great day, cheers!

 

Location Hellevoetsluis, The Netherlands

A lonely road leads to the Ivanpah Solar Power Facility in the California desert near the Nevada border.

Some pretty intense atmospherics on Lindisfarne last week. Apparently this is caused by the reflection and refraction of light by tiny ice crystals in the atmosphere.

 

Such big skies up there.

 

Press L - gives it some more impact.

Solar power plant covers 25.000 m2 and is composed of 6.777 solar pannels. It was inaugurated in octobre 2021 by Enovos. Arcelor Mittal owns the lake which formerly was used to cool down a steel mine. Projet manager was Éric Golinelli and Solar lake produces 3 GWH/year electricity for 3.200 inhabitants or 800 homes.

lunar eclipse is near

but here comes the one and only solar eclipse of today :-)

 

ok, it's a chandelier found in Casa Batll, Barcelona

  

As the sun begins to emerge to view from behind the moon, a "diamond ring" appears.

Mt Coolum taken from east side of Mt Ninderry. It was another 3 am start to see the sunrise from the top of Ninderry but it was too overcasted and the sunrise was a non event. Slightly disapointed with the pictures we had taken so far we decided to pack up and go. Just as we were about to leave the sun light started to filtrate from between the clouds giving this amazing view. One of the ironic things about this picture is that the sun started to shine quite strongly in the area where the new Sunshine Coast Solar Farm (Valdora) is being built. Good spot for a solar farm I say.

The drought in California continues. We rarely see a lot of cloud under solar halo in the sky.

Le Solar Orbiter, fruit d'une collaboration internationale entre la NASA et l' Agence spatiale européenne (ESA), a été lancé en février 2020. Depuis, il a acquis des données qui aident les astronomes à mieux comprendre la volatilité de la surface solaire et à prévoir les tempêtes solaires.

 

Grâce à ses dix instruments de pointe, il s'agit du laboratoire scientifique le plus complexe jamais envoyé par l'humanité vers notre étoile la plus proche. L'un de ses plus grands exploits à ce jour est d'avoir obtenu la plus large vue haute résolution du Soleil jamais réalisée.

Aided by its 10 state-of-the-art instruments, it is the most complex scientific laboratory sent by humankind to our nearest star. One of its biggest feats to date is having taken the widest high-resolution view of the sun ever achieved.

On a cold fall day, a bighorn sheep chose to rest on a natural rock bench that had been heated by the sun. It was so content it was chewing its cud while soaking up the sunshine.

 

You may want to enlarge to see more detail of the sheep but I purposely shot for distance to get a better idea of the setting.

My wife's solar light in the early evening.

Solarization or the Sabattier Effect is the process of re-exposing photographic paper during the development process. The result is an eerie silver image that contains light lines between the shadows and the highlighted areas. In this case I just slid the Dehaze slider down to the hazy end in Adobe Raw Convertor. It works most on the dark branches and makes the Spring green new leaves just a little hazy. Thanks if you have the time for a comment.

Couldn't help but notice how flat this Swallowtail was holding his wings - like solar panels to soak up all the suns warmth and energy possible.

 

It was almost noontime and already the day was sweltering hot so it probably didn't take too long to get all charged up.

 

Seen in the Children's Garden at Dauset Trails Nature Center.

AAW January 13 to 20: Low Saturation

WIT: I thought it would be cool to make the sun a part of the street lamp. I framed it such that the row of townhouses would lead the eye to the lamp. the desaturation also helped to put focus on the "solar" lamp.
